Much Loved and Admired Tiffany’s Diamonds
What color was the famous diamond which starred in the movie ‘Breakfast at Tiffany’s’ starring Audrey Hepburn? We had this question thrown at us at a quiz night recently and everyone present thought that it must be colorless but they were wrong. In fact the diamond was one of the Worlds largest yellow diamonds weighing in at a massive 128 Karats! Cut into a pillow shaped crystal the diamond has been displayed in a number of settings but it is currently set in the ‘Bird on a Rock’ Brooch, designed by the famous Tiffany jeweler Jean Schlumberger. Although there are a number of larger yellow diamonds, the ‘Tiffany Yellow Diamond‘ will always have a special place in the affection of the public due to it’s association with the movie.
